Production Operation

Control touch

• The controls can sense touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure. Use the finger, instead of the nail to operate it.
• Each time a touch is sensed, you will hear a “beep” sound.
• Make sure the control area are always clean, dry, and there is no object (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make it hard to control.
  

Choose the right Cookware

• Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan/pot.
• You can check whether your cookware is suitable
  for the induction hob by carrying out a magnet test.
  Move a magnet towards the base of the pan/pot. If it is attracted, the pan/pot is suitable for induction hob.
• If you do not have a magnet:
  Put some water in the pan/pot you want to check.
  If does not flash in the display and water is being heated, the pan/pot is suitable.
• Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable for an induction hob: pure stainless steel, aluminum or copper pan/pot without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
• Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
  
  Make sure the base of the pan is smooth, lies flat against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Use cookware whose diameter is as large as the graphic for the selected zone. When using a canister, slightly more energy will be used at its maximum efficiency. If you use a smaller pot, the efficiency may be lower than expected. Always center the pan on the cooking zone. The base of a cookware can influence the distribution of heat and therefore the cooking result. Choosing a cookware with a higher quality base (for example, a sandwich type) will save us cooking time and energy.
• Always lift pan/pot off the hob – do not slide pan/pot on the crystal plate, or they may scratch the plate.

Protect the glass surface
Always lift the cookware off the induction hob, do not slide it, as this could scratch the glass.

Cookware empty or with a very thin base
Never place an empty cookware on the hob and turn it on, as this can cause the cookware to overheat (due to excess heat) and damage the ceramic glass or the hob itself. If the base of the cookware is very thin, it can also become overheated, refrain from using this type of cookware.

Cookware detection
The hob has a minimum detection limit of the cooking zone that varies for each cooking zone. For this reason, you should refrain from using cookware whose base is less than the specified diameter.
If you turn on the hob without any cookware, with a cookware with a lower base than specified or with a cooktop not suitable for induction, the cooktop will not work, the display will show “E0”.

Cookware dimensions
The cooking zones have a minimum and maximum operating diameter, and are automatically adapted to the diameter of the pan. However, the bottom of the pan must have a minimum diameter according to the corresponding cooking zone. To get the best efficiency from your induction hob, place the base of the pan in the center of the cooking zone.

peration Instructions

Turn on

If the display flashes the indication

This means that…

• You have not placed a pan on the correct cooking zone;
• The cookware you are using is not suitable for induction cooking;
• The pan has a too small base or is not centered correctly on the cooking zone.
  Therefore…
• Heating is not carried out unless there is a suitable container in the cooking zone.
• The screen will turn off automatically after 2 minutes if a suitable container is not placed on it.

When you have finished cooking

BOOST FUNCTION
The BOOST function is used to temporarily increase the power of the chosen cooking zone, and thus to be able to obtain a more powerful and faster cooking in a short period of time. We recommend that you use the BOOST function with caution and only temporarily as excess power can burn or overheat food.

Using the BOOST function

• The power selector has nine power levels 1 to 9 and BOOST mode b.
• Touch the cooking zone selector button (corresponding to the chosen cooking zone), and then touch the button “B” to select the power level “b” which is BOOST mode.
• To cancel the BOOST function, touch the cooking zone selector button corresponding to the cooking zone that is under BOOST mode and select the desired power level.
  Note: The BOOST function increases the power considerably, so we recommend that you use it with caution as cooking times can vary and excess temperature can burn the food.

FLEXI ZONE

• The flexible cooking zone is located on the left side of the induction hob.
• This area can be used as a single zone or as two different zones, accordingly to the cooking needs anytime.
• Free area is made of two independent inductors that can be controlled separately.

Using the FLEXI ZONE

1. Touch the cooking zone selector button (corresponding to the chosen cooking zone), and the power indicator will show the power level flashing.
2. Touch the Flexi zone button the power level indicators of the upper and lower zones will show the default power level “5”.
3. Slide the slider to adjust the cooking power.
4. The power level of the flexible cooking zone can be varied at any time during cooking. To do this, touch one of the selection buttons and when the power level indicators start to flash, then adjust the power level by sliding the slider.

Locking the buttons

• You can lock the buttons to prevent unintended use (for example children accidentally turning the cooking zones on).
• When the control panel is locked, all the buttons except the “ON/OFF ” button are disable.

To lock the buttons

Touch the keylock button

To unlock the buttons

• Make sure the induction cooker is on.
• Touch and hold the keylock button for 3 seconds.
• You can now start using your cooker.

When the cooker is the lock mode, all the buttons are disable except the “ON/OFF  ”, you can always turn the induction cooker off with the “ON/OFF ” button in an emergency, but you shall unlock the cooker first in the next operation.

Over-Temperature Protection
A temperature sensor equipped can monitor the temperature inside the induction cooker. When an excessive temperature is monitored, the induction cooker will stop operation automatically.

Automatic Safety Shutdown
It is a protection system that incorporates the induction hob, which automatically turns off after 120 minutes if you forget to turn it off and do not touch any button. When the pan is removed, the induction hob stops heating immediately.
People with a pacemaker should consult their physician before using this unit.

FANS
At the base of the hob there is a fan whose objective is to maintain a stable temperature inside the induction hob. Every time the hob is turned on and the power or temperature is adjusted, the fans will also run. When the hob is turned off, the fans will stay on and automatically turn off when the hob is cool enough.
If you use the induction hob on the table top, NEVER place kitchen towels, cloths or other objects that could obstruct the fan holes, as this would prevent adequate ventilation and cause the circuits to overheat, thus causing the security protections.

Note:
Remember that the fan will run long enough to cool down the cooker after turning it off. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Using the Timer

• You can set it to turn one cooking zone off after the set time is up.
• You can set the timer up to 99 minutes.

Setting the timer to turn one cooking zone off

Cooking Guidelines
Be careful when frying, as oil and fat heat up very quickly, especially if you are using the Turbo function. At extremely high temperatures, oil and grease ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire hazard.

Energy saving

• When the food comes to a boil, reduce the power.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining heat.
• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
• Start cooking on a high power level and then reduce the power level when the food has heated up.

Simmer

• Simmering occurs below the boiling point, around 85 ° C, when bubbles occasionally rise to the surface of the cooking liquid. It’s the key to delicious tender soups and stews because flavors develop without overheating the food. You should also cook thickened egg and flour based sauces below the boiling point.
• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher than lower to ensure that food cooks properly in the recommended time.

Care and Cleaning

Heat Settings

The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will depend on factors including your cookware and the amount you are cooking. Experiment with the hob to find the settings that best suit you.
